Title
Solar FTP Server <= 2.1.1 Malformed USER Denial of Service
Summary
Solar FTP Server fails to properly handle format strings passed to the USER command. When a specially crafted string containing format specifiers is sent, the server crashes due to a read access violation in the __output_1() function of sfsservice.exe. This results in a denial of service (DoS) condition.

Title
WM Downloader 3.1.2.2 Buffer Overflow via Malformed M3U File
Summary
WM Downloader version 3.1.2.2 is vulnerable to a buffer overflow when processing a specially crafted .m3u playlist file. The application fails to properly validate input length, allowing an attacker to overwrite structured exception handler (SEH) records and execute arbitrary code. Exploitation occurs locally when a user opens the malicious file, and the payload executes with the privileges of the current user.

Details

Four format string injection vulnerabilities exist in the web interface /action/wirelessConnect functionality of Abode Systems, Inc. iota All-In-One Security Kit 6.9Z and 6.9X. A specially-crafted HTTP request can lead to memory corruption, information disclosure and denial of service. An attacker can make an authenticated HTTP request to trigger these vulnerabilities.This vulnerability arises from format string injection via the default_key_id and key HTTP parameters, as used within the /action/wirelessConnect handler.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-13 01:37 – Updated: 2022-05-13 01:37
VLAI
Details

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of NetGain Systems Enterprise Manager 7.2.730 build 1034. Although authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability, the existing authentication mechanism can be bypassed. The specific flaw exists within the org.apache.jsp.u.jsp.tools.exec_jsp servlet, which listens on TCP port 8081 by default. When parsing the command parameter, the process does not properly validate a user-supplied string before using it to execute a system call. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of Administrator. Was ZDI-CAN-5193.

}

Mitigation
Requirements

Choose a language that is not subject to this flaw.

Mitigation
Implementation

Ensure that all format string functions are passed a static string which cannot be controlled by the user, and that the proper number of arguments are always sent to that function as well. If at all possible, use functions that do not support the %n operator in format strings. [REF-116] [REF-117]

Mitigation
Build and Compilation

Run compilers and linkers with high warning levels, since they may detect incorrect usage.

CAPEC-135: Format String Injection

An adversary includes formatting characters in a string input field on the target application. Most applications assume that users will provide static text and may respond unpredictably to the presence of formatting character. For example, in certain functions of the C programming languages such as printf, the formatting character %s will print the contents of a memory location expecting this location to identify a string and the formatting character %n prints the number of DWORD written in the memory. An adversary can use this to read or write to memory locations or files, or simply to manipulate the value of the resulting text in unexpected ways. Reading or writing memory may result in program crashes and writing memory could result in the execution of arbitrary code if the adversary can write to the program stack.

CAPEC-67: String Format Overflow in syslog()

This attack targets applications and software that uses the syslog() function insecurely. If an application does not explicitely use a format string parameter in a call to syslog(), user input can be placed in the format string parameter leading to a format string injection attack. Adversaries can then inject malicious format string commands into the function call leading to a buffer overflow. There are many reported software vulnerabilities with the root cause being a misuse of the syslog() function.
